Bleeding Edge

An alpha release based on Qt 5.4.2 (with an updated browser engine) is available. Please note that this is a work-in-progress and not all the features have been ported to it yet, so do not expect any support for any bugs you may encounter.

Builds for OS X will be made available as soon as support for it is added in the build script, which is an ongoing process. Please note that the above linux builds are not headless, and will require running under xvfb.

Archive

Please note that bug reports will not be accepted against the following, which are considered obsolete. It is recommended to use the latest stable or testing release instead, and report an issue if there is a regression from a previous release.

FAQ

Where are the “static linux” binaries?

The above binaries are static (i.e. do not depend on Qt) but still depend on packages provided by your distribution. As each distribution has a different version for each required package (along with their dependencies, compilation flags, security hardening options such as ASLR), it is not possible to build a single binary which will work consistently across all distributions. Hence, distro-specific packages have been provided as they explicitly declare the required packages and are easy to install.

Can I get the binaries directly without the package/installer?

You can’t, but you can extract it from the packages – see this post on the mailing list.

My distribution is not supported! What should I do?

Compile the source code with the instructions given above. It is not possible to compile for all distributions, and each new release requires at least 2 days to build all the above combinations (which are >= 400+ MiB of compressed packages/installers).

There are unoffical build instructions for SmartOS and OpenBSD, but they are still a work in progress.

This is a false positive reported because Symantec has not seen this file before – see this clarification for details.
